Tri City Health Partnership (TCHP) is the only free medical and dental clinic in Kane County, and they are located in downtown St. Charles.
Many local bars and restaurants have enough to worry about just running their business, and most can’t afford to offer health insurance to their staff - TCHP treats those with no insurance for free: exams, medications, lab work, radiology, and more. They care for low-income, uninsured residents. Currently, 58% of their patients work at St. Charles bars and restaurants.
Tri City Health Partnership solely relies on grants, donations, and fundraisers to continue their mission. That’s why the STC Six Collab will have a great impact on those in need. By working together, the collaboration and TCHP can keep the businesses working and the community healthy.
